Tired Feet.

In warm weather especially, housekeep
ers who take so many steps ave liable to
great suffering from aching or burning
feet. Some seek relief in wearing old
broad slippers others think a close fitting
boot supports the ankle and is more COM
portable for the foot. The boot presents
the best appearance; an ill-shaped foo,
may look neat in boot. but slipper or
low shoe makes the most of natures de,
fects Some tired woman says comfort
is more than looks in the hurry of farm
housework,' but we question whether it
is wise to wear loose, Tapping slippers
which allow the foot to spread and widen
until it loses all the hope of presenting a
trim appearance in nice boot, for there
are women who have, to use their own
words, favored their feet until their dread
OF dressing up lies in the misery OF
wearing a buttoned boot.
A change from slipper to boot or even
from one pair of boots to another will
rest tired feet more than would be imag
ined by one who had never tried it.
Bathing the feet at night is recommend
ed for relieving the discomfort of burning
feet, and washing them in solution of
borax will also lessen any irritation.
